Chapter 176 - MY BEAUTIFUL WEDDING WITH HUSBAND BAO (2)

[Song recommendation: Lee Hi - Only.]

We were about to kowtow to them, but they prevented us from kowtowing just like my parents. Madam Yang was the first one to open the conversation, "You two, you don't need to kowtow, especially you, Shi Ying."

I froze right in front of her. My position right was kneeling in front of her, while Meng Bao was kneeling in front of his dad, Mr. Yang. I got scared, thinking that Madam Yang would start shaming me right before everyone on my wedding day. 

"Come closer," Madam Yang ordered. I walked closer to her and closed my eyes. I clenched the hem of my cheongsam out of fear. 

"Hands off your cheongsam!" Madam Yang warned me, and I reluctantly released my grip from my dress. "Why are you so scared anyway?"

Well, because I was afraid that you would insult me and degrade me during my wedding day, in front of so many guests. 

"Stay still," Madam Yang said. I followed all her instructions, and I suddenly felt a gentle touch under my left eye on my cheek. I opened my eyes slowly and saw her squinting at me, trying to pick something from my face.

Madam Yang clicked her tongue annoyedly, "That makeup artist, I've told her to give you the best look, yet, she still accidentally gave you a slightly uneven shade on your cheek."

"I'll call her later. I will complain," Madam Yang said. 

I blinked out of shock. I didn't expect Madam Yang to be that attentive to my appearance. I really thought he would slander me, but she just wanted to make sure that my makeup was on point during my wedding day. 

"Madam?" I called her. I just didn't expect her to be this kind to me. 

"What?"

"Did you just—"

"Yes, I don't want my daughter-in-law to look ugly during her wedding day. So stay still while I'm fixing your shade a bit," Madam Yang said. "Aish, there is also a falling eyelash. I will have a strict talk with him."

I kept staring at him, and I felt that Madam Yang wasn't as scary as I thought she was.

True, she had a sharp mouth, but she could be a good person sometimes, especially regarding his son's wellbeing, including the person he loved.

"Madam…"

"Don't call me Madam anymore. You're not my staff or underling. You're now my daughter-in-law. So you must call me with Mother or Mom."

"Mother…" I nodded obediently. "Thank you for accepting me, Mother…."

"Don't be too scared of me. You may not be the kind of ideal daughter-in-law I envisioned. But you're my son's choice, and you're the first and the only one that can make him look so happy."

"That's why I will entrust my son's happiness with you. You don't need to worry about money. All you need to do is to be a supportive wife for him."

"I will try my best, Mother," I said. 

Madam Yang smiled, a sincere smile that I saw for the very first time, "Good, now I can entrust my son to you. Thank you for accepting his love, Shi Ying."

…

I felt emotional as I finally got recognition from my mother-in-law. I knew things wouldn't be this easy in the future, but at least she accepted me the way I was right now.

I might not be the beautiful model that she wanted to be her daughter-in-law, but I knew my heart around Meng Bao, and I knew that Meng Bao would pick me over any woman in this world.

I guess even Madam Yang understood that. 

"Now, go and talk with your boss," Madam Yang chuckled and glanced at her husband, Mr. Yang. 

I switched places with Meng Bao and kneeled in front of Mr. Yang, my boss, for seven years. I kissed the back of his hand and said, "Thank you for blessing my marriage with Yang Menghuo, Mr. Yang."

"Call me Dad or Father. And yes, I've been thinking about setting you up with my son plenty of times, remember?" Mr. Yang said.

Of course, I remember because it was I who kept rejecting his offer. But that was because Mr. Yang kept calling his son a gay wastrel. I might be a rotten girl who loved BL at heart, but I didn't want to marry one! Because I still wanted children of my own, with my husband. 

Mr Yang chuckled full of mirth, and then he mentioned, "Don't forget about our deal. After you two have settled down with everything, you must return to the office and care for it with my son. He will be the new CEO, and you'll be the new secretary."

"Eh…" Honestly, I didn't think that Meng Bao could take care of the company by himself. Because of his lazy habit, it might create an unstable company.

But then again, I realized that Meng Bao was a billionaire, so I guess he could just tweak few things for his preference. 

"I understand, Father. I will try my best."

Mr. Yang patted my shoulder and said, "I trust you with my son, he can be handful to take care of, but he is a good man. Give us many grandchildren as well. I want to play with my grandchild when I retire." 

"Don't worry, this time, I will pay for all my ignorance when raising Yang Menghuo. I will spoil all my grandchild," Mr. Yang said. 

"He's lucky to have you in his life, Shi Ying."

***

After we were done paying respect to our parents, few more ceremonies passed through our eyes. It was like an automatic movement for our body to just follow everything and followed the custom until the end of the ceremony, the one that would seal us as husband and wife. 

"The last ceremony of this wedding would be Baijiu (Wedding Wine) that would be consumed by the groom and bride. Please bring the wine," the MC said. 

A woman brought a tray of wine in a diamond-decorated bottle and also two red ceramic cups. 

She poured the tea for us and then bowed her head, leaving the stage. 

Meng Bao and I stared at each other. In the custom that we read, we should link our arms together and then drink the wine simultaneously. 

Meng Bao picked his wine first, and then I picked mine. He glanced at me with a smile of mirth on his face. He said, "Jiejie, with this, we will be recognized as husband and wife by heaven. I want us to be husband and wife even in our next incarnation…."

I chuckled, "You're reading too much lore. But oh well, let's do this, Baobao."

We crossed and linked our arms. Then we stared at each other. With a sweet smile, Meng Bao said, "Jiejie, I love you."

Three… two… one…

Meng Bao and I drank the wine at the same time. The sweet and bitter taste of wine was refreshing in my mouth as I put down my wine. 

I saw Meng Bao putting his slowly, and then his cheeks turned red immediately. 

I frowned. I sensed that something was wrong with Meng Bao. He became dazed after drinking one cup of wine but still tried his best to standing straight. 

After everything was done, the only thing left was us smiling at the guests as they were having their lunch. Some of them walked to the stage and congratulated us for our wedding, though most of them seemed to be Meng Bao's business partner. I checked at my sisters who were eating, especially Shi Qiang, who sat her ass right in front of the pudding section. She seemed to enjoy it a lot that she kept eating. I counted that she had eaten at least 30 cups of pudding. 

My stomach growled because I hadn't eaten anything since morning. But of course, I couldn't just eat rice with beef right now. 

I sighed and glanced at Meng Bao, "Baobao, can you tell the staff to give me a snack—"

…

I was shocked when I saw Meng Bao was already sleeping with his mouth opened right in front of so many people. I shook his shoulder, "Baobao, wake up now! Don't embarrass me like this."

"Zzz… Jie… hehe… ehehe…." Meng Bao started giggling like an idiot. "So plump… want to suck…."

…

THIS IDIOT WAS HAVING A WET DREAM ON HIS WEDDING DAY!

I saw his face was very red. I guess after he drank that wine, he became tipsy almost immediately and then got drunk with just one cup of wine. 

And now he turned into this. 

Things would be really, really bad if Meng Bao did the unthinkable here, right in front of so many people. I looked down and saw that he had a big bulge as well.

I gulped and carried Meng Bao, bridal style.. I got up from the chair with Meng Bao on my arm, and I asked Madam Yang, "Mother, do you know where our bridal chamber is? Yang Menghuo and I need to go there as soon as possible."
